Hope you had a nice Christmas and a fun break. Finally my new book is done!! I picked up some boxes of books from our local printer and snaffled the first 10 books off the printing press. I have decided to keep a copy for myself, sign the rest, and give them away. I am going to run a friendly little competition over my 3 platforms, Facebook, Instagram and Typepad, to win a signed copy of my new book - 'The Story of My Day'. The rules are, post a comment to be in the draw. I will randomly pick 3 winners who have commented and they will receive a book.

I am going to choose the winners on January the 8th, so good luck!!Feel free to enter on Instagram and Facebook as well and enter as many times as you like. We have sent all the pre-orders out to shops so if you can't wait, visit your local patchwork shop and pick one up, or visit our website.

Hi Everyone, I am stitching frantically in my little studio room while the rain is gently falling on our tin roof. A great day for sewing. I hoped to be a bit further advanced than I am ... Eeek, still madly trying to complete all my projects for my latest book 'The Story of my Day'. Here is a snippet of another project I am working on and of course it is all about shoes.

Hi All I am finally back in the shop and I thought I would showcase a few things that have come in. Every year I love receiving my shipment of calendars for next year. I pick these guys out in March and then have to wait 6 months before I get them. Unbearable nail chewing Christmas style frustration. Anyway here a few of some of the ones I have received. We have lots more including the fun dog and cat calendars as well as ones with sweet sayings and sunshiny images. Keep Stitching Anni
